Database with bibliometric data. Detailed list of journals and authors of bibliometric articles based on WoS.

This dataset contains metorological observations taken in southern Spain before 1850. It is an enlargement of previous datasets "Early Meteorological Observations in Southern Spain" and "Meteorological Observations in Granada 1706-1730". It includes instrumental observations of meteorological variables (temperature, pressure, rainfall, wind direction and force, cloudiness, extrem events) as well as qualitative descriptions on weather conditions. Data from Seville, Córdoba, Jaén, Málaga, Granada, and Murcia are recorded with varied spatio-temporal resolution.

New meteorological data from southern Spain corresponding to the period 1785-1830. Data sources are early newspapers and medical studies interested in the influence of environment conditions on health and illness. Data correspond to five cities in the area (Cádiz, Sevilla, Málaga, Granada, and Cartagena). Around 19.000 new meteorological observations (temperature, pressure, number of rainy days, wind direction, and qualitative statements on rainfall, wind force, cloudiness, fog, and storms) are recorded.

This dataset contains the experimental data collected for a study investigating the psychological and attentional effects of biophilic urban interventions using immersive Virtual Reality (VR). The data was obtained from a within-subjects experimental design involving 16 participants who viewed fixed-viewpoint 360° video footage of urban environments in Almería (Spain). The stimuli represent three distinct socioeconomic statuses (Low, Medium, and High SES), presented under two experimental conditions: Original (baseline) and Bio-aesthetically Enhanced. The dataset includes processed variables suitable for Repeated Measures ANOVA (RM-ANOVA) and correlational analysis, specifically: Psychometric/Subjective Measures: Positive and Negative Affect (PANAS); Perceived Stress and Relaxation ratings; Aesthetic Evaluation and Subjective Liking scores. Oculomotor/Eye-Tracking Metrics: Fixation Count and Average Fixation Duration; Saccadic Velocity and Amplitude; Time to First Fixation (TTFF) and Average Dwell Time; Area of Interest (AOI) Coverage. These data support the findings regarding the "equigenic" potential of biophilic design and the "nature gaze" mechanism in immersive environments. The files are provided in XLSX format.

This database contains open, harmonized, and ready-to-use global data on holdover time. Holdover time is defined as the time between lightning-induced fire ignition and fire detection. The first version of the database is composed of three data files (censored data, non-censored data, ancillary data) and three metadata files (description of database variables, list of references, reproducible examples). These data were collected through a literature review of LIW studies and some datasets were assembled by authors of the original studies, covering more than 150,000 LIW from 13 countries in five continents and a time span of a century from 1921 to 2020. Censored data are the core of the database and consist of frequency data reporting the number or relative frequency of LIW per interval of holdover time. Ancillary data provide additional information on the methods and contexts in which the data were generated in the original studies. Potential contributors to the database are encouraged to contact the corresponding author in the readme file.

The experiment was carried out from February 2020 to November 2021 in two Clementine mandarin orchards from Valencian Community (Spain). The orchards were located in Borriol (40°00'45.5"N 0°05'56.3"W 110 m. a.s.l) and Moncófar (39°48'12.1"N 0°09'58.7"W 15 m. a.s.l) and were 1.4 and 1.1 ha, respectively. Both orchards were selected because they had a medium abundance of D. aberiae. Eight replicated blocks were evenly distributed across the two orchards. Each block was divided into paired 4x4 tree plots, one receiving the “ant-allowed” treatment and the other receiving the “ant-excluded” treatment. In ant-excluded plots, sticky barriers were applied to trunks of trees to prevent ants accessing up to the canopy. To do this, the tree trunk was wrapped with Parafilm® 10-30 cm above ground. The wrapped zone was coated with Tad All-Weather® adhesive. The four central trees of each plot were sampled monthly. From each tree, 40 leaves (ten leaves per cardinal direction) and 20 fruits (five fruit per cardinal direction) were visually inspected, and the number of mealybugs, ants and potential predators were identified and counted. The number of ants crossing (both up and down) an imaginary line surrounding the trunk at 30 cm above ground were counted for two minutes. Ants were identified to species and predators identification varied among groups from order (e.g. Araneae) to species (e.g. Rodolia cardinalis). All observations were made between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., as ant activity in citrus canopies is stable over this period., This dataset is associated to the published paper “Exclusion of Mediterranean ant species enhances biological control of the invasive mealybug Delottococcus aberiae in citrus”. In this paper, the effect of tending ants on the biological control of D. aberiae is evaluated. To do this, we compared: i) the density of D. aberiae, ii) the density of its natural enemies and iii) the damage produced by the mealybug in trees with (control) and without ants (ants excluded with sticky barriers) in two citrus orchards across two consecutive years.

The invasive mealybug Delottococcus aberiae De Lotto (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) has become a key pest in Mediterranean citrus. This mealybug species excretes honeydew that can be consumed by ants, which may give rise to mutualistic relationships and increase the invasibility of this exotic pest. Here, we studied the interaction between D. aberiae and ants in 16 citrus orchards located in the main citrus-growing area of Spain (Valencia) during two consecutive years. The aim of the present research was to study the interactions between D. aberiae and ant species in Spanish citrus orchards to determine whether these interactions can accelerate the invasion by this mealybug species. For this, 16 citrus orchards were sampled during two consecutive years to: i) identify the ant species that attend D. aberiae; ii) determine the level and density-dependence of ant-attendance; and finally, iii) evaluate the correlation between ant activity and D. aberiae density. The data set includes information on the abundance of mealybugs, ants, and predators in different parts of citrus trees from the orchards sampled in spring, summer, and autumn of 2020 and 2021., This dataset is associated to the published paper “Native ants facilitate the invasion by Delottococcus aberiae in Mediterranean citrus”. In this paper, the mutualistic relationship between Mediterranean ants and the invasive mealybug Delottococcus aberiae in citrus orchards from eastern Spain is described.
